selective abortion has unleashed a saga of horror. Experts are calling it "sanitised barbarism".
Demographic trends indicate India is fast heading towards a million female foetuses aborted each
year.
Although foetal sex determination and sex selection is a criminal offence in India, the practice is
rampant. Private clinics with ultrasound machines are doing brisk business. Everywhere, people
are paying to know the sex of an unborn child. And paying more to abort the female child. The

If the 1991 Census showed that two districts had a child sex ratio (number of girls per thousand
boys) less than 850; by 2001 it was 51 districts. Child rights activist Dr. Sabu George says
foeticide is the most extreme form of violence against women. "Today a girl is several times more
likely to be eliminated before birth than die of various causes in the first year. Nature intended the
womb to be a safe space. Today, doctors have made it the most unsafe space for the female

camouflaged the real issues. It is necessary to take a holistic and non-partisan view of the issues
involved.
The hue and cry about sacrificing merit is untenable simply because merit is after all a social
construct and it cannot be determined objectively in a historically unjust and unequal context. The
idea of competitive merit will be worthy of serious attention only in a broadlyegalitarian context.
But then, caste is not the only obstacle in the way of an egalitarian order. After all, economic

ongoing debate, one side refuses to see the socially constructed nature of the notion of merit,
while the other side refuses to recognise the multiplicity of the mechanisms of exclusion with
equal vehemence.
The idea of caste-based reservations is justified by the logic of social justice. This implies the
conscious attempt to restructure a given social order in such a way that individuals belonging to
the traditionally and structurally marginalised social groups get adequate opportunities to

reservation has to work in tandem with other policies ensuring the elimination of the structures of
social marginalisation and denial of access. It has to be seen as a means of achieving social
justice and not an end in itself. By the same logic it must be assessed and audited from time to
time like any other social policy and economic strategy.

the only medium of oppression and hence by focusing all remedial measures on caste alone, we

abhorrent social order at the social and structural level, has been turned into the essential identity
of individual citizens. Such a situation helps only those politicians who are in search of shortcuts
to power. It is harmful for the cause of a modern social democracy as well as to the cause of
individuals in need of social justice and related affirmative action.

together in an age-old gesture.
Rich Westerners may not think of their societies as plagued by corruption. But the definition of
bribery clearly differs from person to person. A New Yorker might pity the third-world businessman
who must pay bribes just to keep his shop open. But the same New Yorker would not think twice
about slipping the maitre d' $50 to sneak into a nice restaurant without a reservation. Poor people
the world over are most infuriated by the casual corruption of the elites rather than by the
underpaid, “tip”-seeking soldier or functionary.

standards are already enabling. Furthermore, government regulators should set clear criteria for
allowing MFIs to mobilise savings for on-lending to the poor; this would allow for a large measure
of financial independence amongst well-managed MFIs. Each Indian state could consider forming
a multi-party working group to meet with microfinance leaders and have a dialogue with them
about how the policy environment could be made more supportive and to clear up misperceptions.
There is an opportunity to make a real dent in hard-core poverty through microfinance. By
unleashing the entrepreneurial talent of the poor, we will slowly but surely transform India in ways
we can only begin to imagine today.

The only vacationers who experienced an increase in happiness after the trip were
those who reported feeling “very relaxed” on their vacation. Among those people, the
vacation happiness effect lasted for just two weeks after the trip before returning to

All that supposed to have ceased by the end of the Second World War, with the birth of welfare
state designed to meet basic needs and promote social mobility. But despite devoting much
thought and more money to improve the lot of the poor, governments have failed to boost
those at the bottom of the pile as much as those on top of the pile have boosted themselves.

One of the first things parents can do to help their students through their first round of exams is to
make sure they don’t wait until the last minute to prepare. As soon as the exam dates are
determined, help them organize a schedule to stay on top of their work, and provide gentle
reminders throughout the semester to make sure they don’t procrastinate.
If you’re too far away for face-to-face time, send study aids to help them get as relaxed and ready
as possible. Help them avoid the typical exam-time habit of too much junk food and caffeine with

water vapour to freeze into ice crystals that drift and fall, rather than continuing up into the
stratosphere.
A little water manages to get past this cold trap. But as Dr Solomon and her colleagues note,
satellite measurements show that rather less has been doing so over the past ten years than was
the case previously. Plugging the changes in water vapour into a climate model that looks at the
way different substances absorb and emit infrared radiation, they conclude that between 2000 and
2009 a drop in stratospheric water vapour of less than one part per million slowed the rate of
warming at the Earth's surface by about 25%.
Such a small change in stratospheric water vapour can have such a large effect precisely because
